Atkins and Keto are one in the same?

I think they are similar but different in regards to carbs and times of ingestion.

 

[JP@Ironology]

In his books Dr. Atkins discusses the biochemistry/physiology behind getting in a "state" of ketosis. He also has a diet plan that incorporates different phases of carbohydrate consumption. From induction to maintenance phases.

I just finished a week of keto diet....tried to bench today, and was weak as a kitten. Be forewarned that if you're going to run the keto, check your ego at the gym door.

If you are cutting with gear the keto diet is a waste of time. I cut on a diet of 3000K per day, 300grams of protein, 300-400 grams of high quality carbs, 30-50 grams of healthy fats. I believe that Keto diets are only usefull for individuals with obesity problems.

I tend to agree with you. I'm inbetween cycles right now and wanted to lose as much BF as possible before starting on the next cycle. I'm about 230lbs right now at 11-13% BF. The goal is to get down to 190lbs at 7-8% and then hit the next bulking cycle, which will look something like this:

10 Weeks:

Weeks 1-5:
D-bol 50mg's ed
Test Enan 500-750mg's per week
EQ 500mg's per week

Weeks 5-10:
Tren/Prop 75/100mg's Eod
Test Enan 500-750mg's per week
EQ 500mg's per week

In between cycles I try not to stress my body too much. The keto diet seems like it will add alot of stress during a time when you should be recovering. When I am in between cycles I basically eat maintenance caloreis+-500K, I cut my lifting down to every other day, 3-4 times per week. However I always do cardio 6-7 times per week. This works out very well for me.

Read some of the articles by Mr. X on the diet board.

I wasted an entire cycle of steroids by trying to do it on a keto diet (thought, why not cut and build at the same time). NOT! A ketogenic diet is great for losing weight (including some muscle), shitty for putting on mass. You need the insulin spikes from carbos to put on muscle. Unless you add insulin to your steroid cycle, keto just doesn't work, because it keeps your blood insulin levels so low.

My next cycle (12 weeks after my first, same stuff) is WAY better with the added carbos.

However, thought that maybe you could consume stuff like honey only immediately post-workout to spike the insulin during the critical mass building time, but not enough to keep you out of keto...any thoughts?

A keto diet is excellent on a cutting cycle using the "stuff", I have never had a problem with it and in fact they helped me preserve muscle I normally would have lost. I prefer this type of diet for cutting over any others.

So, it would only be a waste if you are trying to add mass. And the diet is just not for the fat/obese.
